Marc Desellem
Marc DeSellem grew up in the suburbs of Cleveland Ohio. His days were filled with the strict rules of private school, and his evenings with unchecked adventure; A sick father unable to establish order after school was out.
His neighborhood friends came from all walks of life; A lack of authority allowing them to explore the abandoned factories of America's Rust Belt, only the fireflies of the midwestern nights told them it was time to go home.
His older sister taught him how to build fortresses out of nothing more than bedsheets and wooden furniture, her influence leading him to believe in Santa Claus for longer than is traditionally normal. Still, he clings to the inner child; A treasure that must never be lost.
